Coffee that fulfils your wildest dreams

Click & Drink

Click & Drink Thanks to the revolutionary one-switch operation philosophy with the smart Rotary Switch, you are only a single touch of a button away from enjoying a perfect cup of coffee. To make your choice, all you have to do is to rotate the switch between coffee and Espresso, one or two cups. Just click the control and seconds later you can be enjoying your drink. Indicators The easy-to-understand indicators light up in a regal red, providing the information that you need. Just one click of the Rotary Switch away, unobtrusively concealed, are the maintenance buttons with associated indicators. Height-adjustable coffee spout Whether you are after a small cup of Espresso or a large cup of breakfast coffee, the height-adjustable coffee spout, which can be raised and lowered between 65 and 111 mm, can be adjusted on a continuous scale to suit all sizes of cup. This prevents coffee splashing on the machine and is your guarantee of a rich, thick crema. The superior design and feel of the machine are also evident.

Barista tips

A barista is someone who is a professional at preparing espresso and coffee. The barista knows every coffee speciality and is a master at preparing perfect beverages. In conjunction with your JURA IMPRESSA, you too can achieve perfect results In addition to the simple preparation at the touch of a button, you can also adapt the coffee or espresso to suit your own individual taste. Various setting options are provided to this purpose. Give it a try: Coffee strength: The coffee strength can be changed before preparation or during the grinding operation by turning the Rotary Switch. This setting changes the coffee powder quantity. The larger the quantity of coffee powder which is used to make the coffee, the stronger and more intensive the coffee speciality will taste. Fineness of grind: In the IMPRESSA the coffee beans are freshly ground each time a coffee speciality is prepared. The fineness of grind has a considerable influence on the taste of the coffee. The fineness of grind is adjusted during grinding.

Height-adjustable coffee spout: The height of the coffee spout can be adjusted on a sliding scale as required to suit the size of your coffee cups. The distance between the coffee spout and the edge of the cup should be as small as possible. This prevents coffee splashing on the machine and produces a fine, thick crema.
In addition remember the following Barista tips: Store your coffee in a dry place. Oxygen, light, heat and moisture will spoil the coffee. Use only fresh, cold water so that the maximum aroma is released from the coffee. To enjoy perfect coffee, change the water every day. Pre-heat your cups. Use a teaspoon for sugar and do not use sugar lumps, as they may spoil the crema or milk foam.

Espresso

Example: this is how to prepare an Espresso. l Place an Espresso cup under the coffee spout. l Turn the Rotary Switch to the 1 Espresso setting a. m l Press the Rotary Switch to initiate preparation of the Espresso. The 1 Espresso symbol a will now flash, and the pre-set amount of water will flow into the cup. Drink preparation stops automatically. To prepare two cups of Espresso, place two cups under the coffee spout and turn the Rotary Switch to the symbol for 2 Espressos s, then press the switch to initiate coffee preparation.

Coffee

Example: this is how to prepare a coffee. l Place a cup under the coffee spout. l Turn the Rotary Switch to the 1 coffee setting d. m l Press the Rotary Switch to initiate preparation of the coffee.

To prepare two cups of coffee, place two cups under the coffee spout and turn the Rotary Switch to the symbol for 2 coffees f, then press the switch to initiate coffee preparation.

Cappuccino

A classic Italian recipe. The Cappuccino consists one-third of Espresso, hot milk and milk foam. It is finished with a sprinkling of cocoa powder. Precondition: your IMPRESSA is ready to use, the Easy Cappuccino Frother is mounted. l Take the milk pipe out of the Welcome Pack. l Take the protective cap off the Easy Cappuccino Frother. l Attach the milk pipe to the frother. l Insert the other end in a milk Tetrapack or connect it to a milk container.

Manual cleaning You can initiate the Cleaning the machine operation manually. Start when the first prompt appears l, as described under Cleaning following a prompt. The IMPRESSA builds up deposits of limescale over time and automatically prompts you to descale it when necessary. The degree of calcification depends on the degree of hardness of your water. If the descaling agent comes into contact with the skin or eyes, this can cause irritation. l Avoid contact with the skin or eyes. l Rinse the descaling agent off with clean water. Should you get any descaling agent in your eye, see a doctor. If the wrong descaling agent is used, the machine could be damaged and/or traces of detergent could be left behind in the water. l Use only original JURA care products. If the descaling operation is interrupted, it is possible that the machine could be damaged. l Allow the descaling program to run to the end. If the descaling agent comes into contact with sensitive surfaces, the possibility of damage cannot be excluded. l Clean up any splashes immediately.

Give it a try: Coffee strength: The coffee strength can be changed before preparation or during the grinding operation by turning the Rotary Switch. This setting changes the coffee powder quantity. The larger the quantity of coffee powder which is used to make the coffee, the stronger and more intensive the coffee speciality will taste. Fineness of grind: In the IMPRESSA the coffee beans are freshly ground each time a coffee speciality is prepared. The fineness of grind has a considerable influence on the taste of the coffee. The fineness of grind is adjusted during grinding.

9 CLARIS plus filter cartridge Water for perfect coffee
As fresh as from the spring
Anyone who has ever drunk fresh spring water knows: There is a world of difference between the elixir of life in its natural form and the processed fluid that comes out of our taps. Very few of us have ready access to a spring. The answer to this is: CLARIS plus filter cartridge from JURA. It transforms the hardness of the mains water into neutral water. On top of this, CLARIS plus can protect your fully automated coffee/ Espresso machine against scale, and used properly, can prolong the service life of your machine. Our mains water is of very high quality and is excellent for drinking. It is subject to ongoing health checks, meets strict, legally binding quality requirements and contains the most important minerals and fluorides.
Water always pleasant and freshly filtered
Use of CLARIS plus filter cartridges guarantees you freshly filtered, delicious-tasting water for your tea and coffee at all times. Designed specially for JURA coffee machines, it is coffee-neutral and is placed directly in the water tank. This gives you three important benefits: The guarantee that your water is freshly filtered before any cup of coffee is prepared; Fresh water and unadulterated aromas guarantee your palate the coffee experience of a lifetime; Lifelong protection for your IMPRESSA (eliminating the need for descaling). CLARIS plus from JURA is hard on scale, but soft on your coffee machine.
Quality knows no compromises
You can see it at work on your household appliances every day. Left to its own devices, scale can cause serious damage. Over time, scale is deposited on the heating elements, clogging the heating elements and pipes. Scale is also detrimental to the quality of your chosen drinks because, with the passage of time, the water will no longer be properly heated. Consequently: The result is that the coffee will taste weaker, Espresso will lose its strength and tea will taste bland. In other words: All enjoyment will be lost. When you buy coffee, Espresso or tea specialities, arent you careful to buy top quality? In that case, you should insist on the same for your water. You will taste and smell the difference the moment you start using the CLARIS plus filter cartridge. The water will taste purer and you will be thrilled by the flavour of your coffee specialities. If you use CLARIS plus filter cartridges regularly, you will be able to omit the time-consuming business of regular descaling. And your coffee machine will reward you with a longer service life. We recommend use of CLARIS plus wherever water is harder than 10 German hardness (dH). You can determine the water hardness before using your JURA coffee machine for the first time with the Aquadur test strip included in the Welcome Pack. The CLARIS plus filter cartridge was developed specially for JURA fully automatic coffee/Espresso machines. It contains a granulate consisting of ion exchangers and active carbon in other words, pure, organic materials with no chemical additives. These agents work together to reduce the formation of calcium deposits, heavy metals and other harmful substances contained in mains water. Other substances detrimental to flavour and aroma, such as chlorine, are also largely eliminated. Minerals and fluorides contained in the water are, of course, retained.

Quality from A to Z

No more descaling
Interaction of organic materials
Water freshly filtered on the just in time principle
Unlike other water filtering systems for domestic use, CLARIS plus works according to the professional up-flow principle. Practically speaking: Only the precise amount of water required for a given beverage is drawn in, and this is filtered directly before use. The water flows through the filter at a constant speed, disturbing the granulate and ensuring that it is used evenly. This system ensures that the filter is used to optimum effect. The remaining water in the tank is left untouched until the next cup of coffee is made. Inserting the CLARIS plus filter cartridge couldnt be easier. It is described in Chapter 2, Preparing and using for the first time Using and activating filter. After 50 litres of water have been dispensed or after two months at the latest, the filter will cease to work. After this, the cartridge must be replaced. Your JURA coffee machine will prompt you to change the filter. This process is described in detail in Chapter 8, Maintenance changing the filter. You can return used filter cartridges to the stockist. They are returned for recycling to protect the environment.

Maintenance and storage
The CLARIS plus filter cartridge only needs to be removed from the water tank if you are away for a lengthy period of time or if you wish to clean or descale the tank using a conventional product. If you do plan to be away for some time (e.g. for a holiday), we recommend that you do the following to store the filter cartridge. Remove the cartridge from the water tank. Place it in a glass with about two centimetres of water and put it in the fridge. We recommend that you run about half a litre of water through the machine before starting to make coffee again. The water could be discoloured, but this is not harmful to your health.
